However, the modernization project does not provide any new measures in the context of increasing protection, and therefore the experienced Challenger 2 has only regular reservations. Perhaps the Streetfighter II kit can be combined with the elements of the previous kit, but such features are not explicitly mentioned or demonstrated.

In general, it should be assumed that the installation of additional equipment such as Streetfighter II can indeed positively affect the combat qualities of the Challenger 2 MBT. However, there is a need for other means. Only in this case, the tank will be able to work effectively and with minimal risk in urban areas.

Unclear future


The prospects for the Streetfighter II project have not yet been specified. They will probably be determined only after the end of the current tests. Based on their results, a decision may be made to introduce a new set, to finalize it with the aim of improvement, or to close the project.


The blade can also be used as a stretcher for the wounded

The fate of the new project may be affected by the already known plans of the military department. Now, on a competitive basis, a deep modernization of Challenger-2 is being developed, aimed at maintaining and improving the main indicators. Two developments of different companies apply for the contract, and there is no obvious favorite yet. In the near future, the army will choose the most successful project and launch a serial update of equipment.

How these plans relate to the development of a kit for urban conditions is not specified. Perhaps some of the solutions from the two Streetfighter projects will be used in larger upgrades. A scenario is also possible in which the Streetfighter II will remain a set of additional equipment without a clear link to the modification of the base tank.

However, a negative development of events cannot yet be ruled out. When testing a number of prototypes, it may turn out that the Challenger 2 with the Streetfighter II kit does not have decisive advantages over other modernized MBTs. In this case, the project may be closed due to lack of prospects.

Thus, in the context of the development of the British armored forces, a very interesting situation is observed. The command is not going to abandon the MBT Challenger 2 - including due to the objective impossibility of creating a completely new model. At the same time, the plans provide for a deep modernization of this technology, and several projects of this kind already exist. One or more of these developments will ensure the combat effectiveness of tank units in the future.

    It seems that there is nothing more to write about.
    Already 10 years as discontinued production. this tank. Yes, and released a little more than 400 pcs. At the moment, there are: Great Britain-277 and Oman-38. Who needs these upgrades?

      Of the 277 that remained in England, an unknown amount is in storage. How much is real in the ranks is not clear, since different numbers are called. Plus, the expected reduction, in order to save budget. The article is certainly interesting, but nothing.

      As Israeli tankers explained to me, it is used when it is impossible to hit a target with a gun or if the tank cannot continue to move when they leave the car and attack like infantry. In the latter case, the mortar is used as additional fire support.

        Is the infantry too expensive? I remember back in WWII tankers of faulty equipment were tried to be used in infantry units, then, on pain of death, bosses of all degrees were forbidden to do this. Gold foot soldiers turned out, and not very skilled. But in the place of the deceased BUT another must be prepared for at least six months, so that they can only be seated in a chair, and another year to teach them how to fight. Still, the tanker and the motorized rifle are completely different military schools.

            You yourself wrote that they leave the car and attack like infantry. An attack is not inevitability and an extreme necessity. And tankers are not a spherical horse in a vacuum. Tanks without infantry and artillery support do not attack. A modern level of technology and weapons requires the cultivation of human resources by specialization.

            The tanker is taught in a training unit and issued a document on his training in his specialty. Tell me a military unit where a simple MSO shooter is trained from the "third" type of infantry? laughing And in the case of the mortar described by you, the tanker must also have artillery training. In Israel, everything is somehow special. Probably....

              In general, this is a big nonsense about an attack with a mortar, it was already discussed at the VO that a mortar on a mercava is needed not for attack by infantry fighting forces, but for the use of lighting and smoke mines. For example, at night, throw daylight / nightlight 2-3 km ahead, or throw smoke at the intersection so that the enemy can’t aim fire along the streets and thus ensure the passage of the street and the enemy’s surroundings.

                Right.
                The mortar on Merkava, as far as is known, was never used for firing conventional mines. Although theoretically it is possible.
                Thought to apply in urban battles, but it turned out to be unrealistic. And to keep boxes with ordinary mines in the tank is also inconvenient and dangerous.

                And this is the eternal headache of the tankers. In two parts:
                The first - attached infantry for tanks not coming (from reports on the conflict on the CER).
                The second - almost no infantry in tank units (from reports starting in 1939 and ending with the war of 08.08.08/XNUMX/XNUMX).

                As a result, instead of a statutory battle (the infantry detects and crushes enemy’s anti-tank weapons with personal, group and heavy weapons, up to 120 mm mortars, and tanks, upon requests from the infantry, crush the firing points that interfere with it), all insanity begins when the tanks are forced to detect anti-tank weapons, crush them yourself, and even remember about enemy infantry and armored vehicles.

                It is in this eternal misfortune that the roots of all BMPTs lie - how could we, tankmen, manage on our own, without infantry, and with three or four crew members solve the problems of ten infantrymen.

                  You would still remember the ice battle. In the conflict on the CER in 1929 there were only 9 tanks, and two exercise books of the use of tanks in the 1st World War. It would be more appropriate for you to recall the introduction of tank corps in the Belarusian operation. There were normal military operations according to the classical scheme with the use of tank formations and formations while saturating the rifle units and formations with mechanization, allowing them to move at equal speeds with the tank. It was then that the headache was precisely the possibility of moving units of various military branches at the same pace.

                  Take for example 4 GVTD (Naro-Fominsk) in 1990:
                  12th Guards Tank Regiment, Naro-Fominsk (90 T-80UD, 4 T-64, 15 BMP-2, 33 BMP-1, 2 BRM-1K, 2 BTR-70, 12 2S1 Gvozdika)
                  13th Guards Tank Regiment, Naro-Fominsk (119 T-80UD, 5 T-64, 3 T-72, 39 BMP-2, 32 BMP-1, 2 BRM-1K, 6 BTR-70, 12 2S1 "Gvozdika ")
                  14th Guards Tank Regiment, Naro-Fominsk (90 T-80UD, 4 T-64, 17 BMP-2, 34 BMP-1, 2 BRM-1K, 5 BTR-70, 12 2S1 Gvozdika)
                  423rd Guards Motorized Rifle Regiment, Naro-Fominsk (31 T-80UD, 1 T-64, 28 BMP-2, 47 BMP-1, 2 BRM-1K, 1 BTR-70, 12 2C1 Gvozdika)
                  In the 2017 year:
                  12 gtp
                  13 gtp
                  423 gvmsp.
                  Is it not enough for you to have one motorized rifle regiment for 2 tank regiments? In addition, each tank regiment has its own motorized rifle battalion.

And since we still won in WWII, as in the Far East in 1945, it should be recognized that for the most part we were able to follow the rules based on combat experience, our tankmen and infantrymen with all other arms.

                    Let me remind you - initially it was about Syria and Ukraine. Where instead of the statutory interaction of the types and types of troops, tanks roll around cities or attack strongholds in splendid isolation.
                    However, it was exactly the same at first with us in Chechnya, and even in South Ossetia.
                    As for the Second World War, the orders on the need for interaction between tanks and infantry in the SBD are from 1941 to 1945. By the end of the war, interaction in general had been established, but another problem arose - due to the exhaustion of mobber reserves, there was often no one to interact with: there were simply not enough "active bayonets" for all the tanks.

There is infantry, there are tanks. But the tanks act on their own, and the infantry - on its own, and it is extremely difficult to raise it behind the tanks. And this problem in real battles is eternal - since 1929.

                      Examples from Syria or Ukraine do not seem to me correct for addressing the problems of the practice of the combat use of tank troops. Civil wars are characterized by the fact that they are conducted by irregular forces and are led by personnel who are not always trained militarily. And therefore, like amateurs in any business, such personnel can suffer from childhood diseases. From the videos available on the networks it is impossible to judge the nature of the battle, the forces involved and the degree of interaction between the elements of the fighting group. Therefore, it seems to me naive to say the least about the sufficiency of infantry in a tank formation, and this is a brigade division, by storming a village.
                      All of these peacetime states, of course, look just fine. Especially on paper. And when it comes to business, it turns out that in the SMEs of active bayonets - in the battalion, and in the MSB - in the company. And that is at best. And at worst - see the Maykop brigade or the number of motorized rifles in tank formations in 1945.

                      Obviously you are not in the know. OSHS TD and peacetime states are somewhat different concepts. In general, I only gave you the number of tank and MS units in the 4th Guards Division. For OShS TD, it makes no difference what time is peace or military. In this configuration, the TD will meet the war, if necessary. Here in the issue of filling the state, this plays a role. In the SA, there could be framed units in which only an organizational core was available, intended for the storage of armored vehicles and primary measures for receiving a mobilization resource for deploying a unit to a full staff. At the same time, the OshS unit had all the subdivisions it was supposed to be, only the l / was, for example, in MS units 1 company 50%, the remaining 8 - only the company commander with a list of assigned personnel. The number of motorized riflemen in tank formations in 1945 was lower than the standard number due to the decrease in combat losses and the impossibility of replenishing it to full staff. But tankers were certainly not left without infantry in 1945, especially in offensive operations. And even on a smaller scale, in the work of assault groups in settlements, they were manned from different units - infantry + tanks + engineers + artillery. The methods of interaction between different types of troops were developed, discussed and prescribed in the manuals that were mandatory for execution. Do not think that the war wrote off everything, including the loss of l / s and BT if the prescribed rules were not followed. For everything they asked strictly, up to "very strictly".
                      Once again, you stubbornly confuse the strategic and tactical level.

                      The introduction of a tank corps in an army operation is not yet a strategist, but an operational art. I cited this example as the most described military-historical literature and characteristic of many operations.
                      there were simply not enough "active bayonets" for all the tanks.

                      Give an example, so that in the offensive operations of 1945, which were usually carefully prepared, the tanks rushed into the breakthrough or into the battle not provided with the corresponding infantry precisely because of the lack of the latter.

              Tanker training - infantry 03 - that is, knows how to throw a grenade, work as part of three people, like an infantryman. On combined arms, EMNIP, reaches up to 0,5 - the type knows how to work as part of a company (actually a platoon), shoot with a machine gun (FN MAG, as a rule), and a mortar.
              They are taught this - yes. Whether they took advantage of this in practice, they did not read and did not hear. With a mortar, they probably shot somewhere.

                What tanker training? Mechanic, BUT, commander? This is probably understandable to a person organizing combat training in the Israeli army. I served in the SA. Your terms "work with three people" do not apply in the SA BP. You, obviously, are a Jewish zaslanets, and we, in the old fashioned way, instead of FN MAG are accustomed to shoot from the PKK or PKM. Yes, our tankers are not engaged in mortar firing. The Jews consider it necessary, well, let them shoot with a slingshot. The Israeli army is considered the most belligerent, but in life the Jews were terpily all the way (often deservedly). Taking an example from their combat training seems dubious to me.

                  5) Jews suffered all the way lol Of course, there are quite a few intelligent people of Jewish descent who cannot stand up for themselves, but there are also former athletes who have become rich and influential in the same Russia, capable of mutilating you physically, depriving you of property, freedom (with a sentence on their conditions wink) etc.

                      At KMB? They, in addition to mastering the tank, have infantry training - weak, by Israeli standards. No more than 700 rounds of ammunition are shot from a personal weapon, they throw grenades, and they learn to work together (such as moving forward in turns, when two cover up, thus moving towards the target). Well, the march is not a serious throw - up to 20 km.
                      Then they learn to work on combined arms as a platoon - such as a company, in fact a platoon - the guys divided into triples also move forward, with the difference that after gaining the first position on the hill, say, they put a group with machine guns and a mortar that covers the rest of the attackers.
                      About the nation? In the Arab-Israeli wars, in addition to the Arabs, many who were on the side of the former)). For example, the cover of lights from behind a puddle came in the late 60s, after the main territorial conquests of Israel - due to the introduction of a group of Soviet troops in Egypt during the war of attrition. Prior to this, Israel was under the Amer embargo on the supply of offensive weapons.
                      Well, before the creation of the state, only half a million Jews fought only in the ranks of the Red Army — and no worse than other Soviet people. Yes, and in modern times - only the Britons in the war with Argentina fought against the less developed ones. All the rest - with Vietnamese, Arabs, Afghans, etc.

        In general, the idea of ​​installing a mortar on the Mage and Merkava tanks was simple, the use of passive infrared sights was very limited in range, so they shot chandeliers, that is, high-explosive shrapnel and smoke, so that it was like moral peace. I have never heard and never I saw it myself and did not shoot these mines, except for lighting ones, already from 2001, but on the other hand, we burned the roofs of houses in Scheme and Rammall with these lighters, not specifically, but because of the wind.

            In general, about five years ago, new smart munitions were developed for 60 mm, such as a parachute camera and kamikaze mini-UAVs, for the exact destruction of terrorists without consequences for other people, and even passed tests, but were not adopted, although for me a very good addition to weapons tank.

        In this case, you can attach oars to it. And the tankman dismounting turns into a sailor.

    Bulldozer blade ..... like that, well, a controversial decision, an explosion of a mine or a grenade will interrupt the hydraulics and what to do with this dump? And I won’t envy the wounded, it’s unlikely that any tanker will put the stern of the tank under fire.

    They would be paired with a mortar with non-lethal shots and another AGS in the SAM with circular firing and an elevation of 85 degrees. Plus the blade is not even but wedge-shaped, so as not to move the obstacle but to push it apart. With the evacuation of delirium. If you really want to, you can attach a stretcher bracket. On the sides and in the stern, away from the exhaust.

    It is advisable for Streetfighter-II to consider replacing the 120-mm rifled gun with a 155-mm howitzer. Well and, of course, protection, especially from above.

    How not to fight - after a shot from the gun, the shock wave and the muzzle flame will incinerate their infantrymen in front of the tank

      So no one fights there. The barrel of the cannon is plugged, on the right in the photo (on the left in the direction of the tank) a body lies on the bulldozer bucket ... also, apparently, is "at war" laughing

            Marines should not be in front of the tank either in the offensive or in the retreat - otherwise death / injuries from the shock wave and muzzle flame are guaranteed to them.

    Non - British scientists have proven that it is better to cover armored vehicles with infantry from the front rather than from the rear laughing

    Or maybe the tanks should not be in dense buildings? They are very clumsy and vulnerable there.

      There is no place for tanks in dense buildings. Here you need another box. Flamethrower in the basement and dropping buildings with a short-barreled large-caliber.

    How about a machine based on MBT with a 152 mm low-ballistic gun with high-explosive and thermobaric shells + a jet flamethrower instead of an anti-aircraft or coaxial machine gun (or even from the main gun - as did flamethrower tanks did before)?
